Bosses at a hospital where a disgraced doctor was suspended after having sex with a prostitute while on duty have ruled out re-hiring him.

Trainee anaesthetist Dr Rupert Pemsel, 32, avoided being struck off but was suspended for ten months after bedding a call girl in a locked room at Princess Anne Hospital in Southampton, Hants.

But after serving his ban, senior managers will block any attempts by Dr Pemsel to return to work.

The married father-of-one has not worked at Princess Anne Hospital since he quit following the incident in 2013, when a formal investigatory process had begun.

A spokesman for University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust, which runs the Princess Anne Hospital, said there were ‘no plans’ to offer him a job.

Dr Pemsel avoided being struck off at a Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service in Manchester, but was condemned for his behaviour.

Chairwoman Lisa Smith said because ‘it would not benefit the public to be deprived of the services of a clinically good doctor’.

Following the ruling Dr Pemsel, of Compton near Winchester, Hants, apologised to everyone involved in the incident including his wife Sheyi, who is a local GP.

A trust spokesman said: “Dr Pemsel has not worked at UHS since December 2013 when he resigned while suspended during a formal investigatory process which included referral to the General Medical Council.

In addition, bosses at another Hampshire hospital where Dr Pemsel previously provided his services through a medical agency will not offer him a job.

It was believed he may try to return to his post in Portsmouth, Hants, after serving his ban, but senior managers at Queen Alexandra Hospital said this would not be the case.

A spokeswoman for Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust, which runs QA Hospital, said: “Dr Pemsel has never been an employee of Portsmouth Hospitals, although he has previously provided services through a medical agency.

“Following the hearing and the disclosure of its detail, we will no longer be using the services of Dr Pemsel.”

The tribunal heard Dr Pemsel claim he met with the escort due to stress in his life, including being involved in two road accidents which left him ‘shocked and upset’.

Witnessing neonatal deaths during a visit to Uganda with medical colleagues added to his stress, and it all led him to view internet pornography.

Apologising for his actions, he said: “I have reflected about the impact this has had on my family, my extremely supportive wife, my colleagues at the hospital I was working at the time, the Deanery, and they are aware of my deepest regret at the impact this has had on them.

“I am extremely regretful about the impact this has had on the profession and about the issues of confidentiality and misconduct.”
